Chapter 5 Possession for Own
At this time, the shopkeeper said excitedly: "Please tell me, how did you get this sword? You must know that Manson loves it like a treasure, and General Gain of the fortress of West Dvera personally went to buy it, but with his friendship with Lord Lovell, he did not buy it. ”
"Hmm... Sorry, I can't tell you. Raymond shook his head.
A look of disappointment flashed across the boss's face, but soon, he said tentatively, "So... Could you please sell me this sword?"
didn't expect him to make such a request, Raymond was stunned, and then shook his head: "No." ”
Although he was refused, the shopkeeper did not give up, he said: "You have such a famous sword, but you don't even know its origin, this is simply... I beg of you, give me this sword, and its value can only be realized in the hands of those who truly know how to appreciate it. ”
Lutz said in a deep voice: "The value of the sword is not to be admired in the window. ”
The boss seemed to think of something, and said eagerly: "By the way, don't you want equipment? ”
"You're short of money, are you? I can pay you a large sum of money, if you can give me this sword. ”
"I think you're mistaken, it's not about the money, I don't plan to sell it at all. At this time, Raymond also saw that something was wrong with the shopkeeper.
The boss didn't mean to let go: "Do you think those equipment are not good enough? Then give me a little time, I can find a better one for you..."
"Hey, what's the matter with you. The young master obviously said that he would not sell it, so he quickly returned the sword. Bath began to get impatient.
Holding the sword tightly in his hand, the shopkeeper's expression changed. Suddenly, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly shouted: "Garrison, garrison, there are thieves here!"
"What!?" Unexpectedly, he suddenly made such a move, and Raymond and Baster looked at each other.
"What thief, you are not finished, hurry up and return the sword to the young master. Baster was angry, and she tried to snatch the sword back, but was grabbed by the shopkeeper.
Just when the stalemate was at a stalemate, I suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the store: "What's the matter?"
But it was five heavily armed garrisons who hurried to hear the sound.
The shopkeeper felt ashamed, and hurriedly sued the wicked first: "Sir, these orcs came to my shop to buy equipment, but under the pretext that they didn't have enough money, they wanted to take the opportunity to steal this sword, but I found out. ”
"You—" Baste was furious, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Raymond with a wave of his hand.
Raymond said calmly: "It's the shopkeeper who took a fancy to my sword and couldn't buy it, so he accused us of being thieves." ”
As he spoke, Raymond's eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced deeply at the shopkeeper: "By the way, your plan is really terrible." ”
Touching Raymond's gaze, the shopkeeper instinctively felt a chill in his heart, and he was speechless for a while. Immediately, he realized that he couldn't show too much weakness, and hurriedly said, "No, sir, you have to believe me. These orcs are dirty and torn, how can they have such a good sword, they just want to steal. ”
Looking at the pile of equipment on the counter, and then at the shabby Luz and Baste, the guards couldn't help but believe it. One of the captain-looking men said to Raymond in an unkind tone, "Where did these two orcs come from, who are you, and why are you with them?"
"Strange, shouldn't you find out whose sword it belongs to first?" Raymond said, pretending to be stunned.
Somehow, the captain of the garrison felt that this person's attitude made him very unhappy, obviously he was the object of interrogation, but he didn't seem to take himself seriously at all.
He said angrily with some gaffes: "I don't need you to teach me, say it quickly." ”
At this time, Ruz took a step forward and said, "We are adventurers, we have just finished a mission, and we are passing by here just to change some equipment. ”
"Adventurer?" the captain of the garrison frowned, "Show me the certificate issued by the Adventurer's Guild." ”
Barste, who was next to her, covered her mouth and gasped slightly. The three of them had just left the Northern Wasteland, and they didn't even know what the Adventurers' Guild was like, so what proof was there.
Just when she thought she would be able to wear a goof, she saw Luz reach into her arms and actually took out a square metal badge engraved with the symbol of the sword and shield and handed it to the captain of the guard.
Apparently, Baster had forgotten that Luz had been an adventurer before. It's just that he even has the adventurer badge of 20 years ago on his body, and this Beamon person is really not ordinary cautious.
Seeing that Luz actually came up with the proof, the captain of the garrison was taken aback. After checking it, he said embarrassedly: "So that's the case, then I'll ..."
At this time, the shopkeeper was a little flustered, knowing that if he really investigated, he would probably be exposed. He turned his heart aside, pulled the captain of the garrison aside, and said in a low voice: "Sir, maybe that badge is fake, you can't be deceived by them." ”
The captain of the garrison couldn't help but say, "What are you talking about, of course it's true..."
"Hehe, then, maybe he stole it. If you could check it more closely, I'd be sure to thank you. The shopkeeper interrupted him.
"Anyway, it's just two orcs, who cares?" he said, stretching out his hand and quietly making a small gesture underneath.
The captain of the garrison hesitated, as if he was moved by the shopkeeper's last words, and he showed a knowing look.
Immediately, the captain of the garrison walked back and said loudly: "An important person has arrived in this city today, and according to the order, I must strictly check all strangers. You three, come with me back to the garrison at once. The sword was to be used as evidence and confiscated for the time being. ”
"Hey, that guy wants to blackmail our young master's sword, why don't you arrest him, but you want to arrest us instead!" said Bath angrily.
The captain of the guard shouted: "Who knows where your badge came from, I must contact the Adventurer's Guild to verify it, and follow us immediately!"
"Or do you orcs dare to go wild here?" he said, slowly drawing his sword.
For a while, the sound of a clanging sound was heard, and the rest of the garrison also drew their weapons, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.
"You—" Baste was accustomed to holding the hilt of the knife, but remembering what Raymond had taught him before, he didn't dare to move it.
At this time, he saw Raymond seem to be quite helpless and spread his hands: "Okay..."
Thinking that he had finally succumbed, the captain of the garrison said proudly: "Count you as acquaintances." I don't care why you're with these two orcs, but if you dare to play any tricks, I'm not welcome..."
Before he finished speaking, Raymond continued: "It seems that I am so idle that I will be bored enough to see the final result." However, this is the end of the negotiations, and sometimes it is better to speak directly by force. ”
"What did you say?"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly saw Raymond step forward and draw his sword from the shopkeeper's arms. With a twist on his wrist, the spine of the sword unexpectedly slapped the head of a guard next to him, and the guy didn't even come back to his senses, and he was knocked unconscious.
The moment Raymond made his move, Luz and Barste also moved. Lutz grabbed one of the guards and threw him directly through the window of the equipment shop, and when he heard a bang, the hapless guy flew out of the store, and there was an immediate exclamation in the street.
At the same time, a white shadow swirled ghostly in the store, two long swords fell to the ground, and the other two guards clutched their wrists in pain, their fingers dripping with blood.
Raymond didn't hit the killer in the first shot, and Luz and Baster both chose to stay.
All this was just a blink of an eye, and when the captain of the garrison reacted, he felt a heavy object resting on his shoulder, and then he realized that the long sword in Raymond's hand had been put on his neck at some point.
"You... What do you want to do, do you know the consequences of doing so?"
On the other side, the straight-eyed shopkeeper was holding the empty scabbard and sat directly on the ground.
"Of course I do. Raymond said indifferently: "I have always thought things out very clearly. ”
"Young master, you are really messing around, just do it. Bath stuck out her tongue at Raymond: "You taught me to be calm before." ”
"Stupid. Raymond knocked her casually: "I told you to see the situation clearly before acting, not to ask you to be a turtle with a shrunken head." Basically, when you encounter this situation, you can just use a beating. ”
As he spoke, he patted the captain of the garrison on the face with the spine of his sword: "Besides, didn't I warn them?" ”
"Where do you have?"
"I told them. Raymond shrugged his shoulders innocently: "I said, sometimes it's easier to speak by force, but they don't understand it." ”
"Wow, you're so deceitful. ”
As she spoke, Baster easily swirled the scimitar between her fingers, and walked towards the shopkeeper with a wicked smile: "But here's the most hateful guy. Hey, did you say I cut off your hands, or did I cut off your ears?"
"No... Don't, I know it's wrong, don't come here. The shopkeeper was so frightened that he shrank back.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the store: "Please stop!"
